Kieran and Heather brought their new mega-puppy Rhea for a visit over the weekend! She's a huge snuggly pupper full of all the doggo energy. Mr. Biggs is slowing down in his old age and Rhea had him exhausted, haha, it was perfect. But she's so sweet he didn't get contrary.

K and H rescued Rhea a couple of months ago. She was being fostered out for about a year and a half after coming from a rough situation. She's about two and is full of love. And energy. And power. But mostly love.

And having her here all weekend made me realize we definitely have enough room for a second big dog...

I once laughed and called Melissa a snail when she tucked her knees under her shirt like in the image above. She instantly lit up and excitedly exclaimed, "I've always wanted to be a snail and have my house on my back! I grow tired of this, I'm going home." She then pulled her head into her shirt and I nearly died laughing.

Old cans litter Rennie's River, caught up in rock for who knows how long. There was a heavy bluish sediment very visible in the river. I assumed it was normal, but a trail-regular stopped and chatted with me about photography and he said it was actually rather strange.
